Truffle Mac Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Cook the Pasta

   In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the elbow macaroni according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. 2

   Make the Cheese Sauce

   In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in flour and cook for about 1 minute until bubbly. Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

3. 3

   Add the Cheeses

   Remove the pot from heat and stir in the sharp cheddar cheese, grated parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper until melted and smooth.

4. 4

   Combine Pasta and Sauce

   Add the cooked macaroni to the cheese sauce and stir until well coated. Drizzle in the white truffle oil and mix well.

5. 5

   Prepare the Topping

   Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a small bowl, mix the bread crumbs with a tablespoon of melted butter, then sprinkle evenly over the macaroni and cheese.

6. 6

   Bake

   Transfer the macaroni and cheese to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden and crispy.

7. 7

   Serve

   Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving. Drizzle with additional truffle oil if desired.
